Improved Staff Efficiency at Galion Community Hospital
Improved staff efficiency at Galion Community Hospital (Galion, OH) by streamlining code reporting
and therefore reducing the response time of the nursing staff.
While striving for continuous improvement, Galion Community Hospital expanded its facility by adding a new surgical center with four surgery suites. The existing hospital building was utilizing Dukane’s nurse call system. The nurse call system was integrated to an overhead paging system for code reporting purposes. This limited the paging code call system to external speakers only. The IT staff did not want to run analog speakers to the surgical center, so they choose to explore alternative solutions.
